FAQs

What material is this skirt made from?

It is crafted from compact viscose, chosen for its durability and smooth, elegant drape.

How does the size UK 12 fit?

The UK 12 is tailored to standard industry measurements, though the fishtail cut provides a more structured fit around the hips.

Is this machine washable?

Due to the delicate nature of the weave, we recommend dry cleaning or careful hand-washing to preserve the garment's shape.

Can I wear this in professional settings?

Yes, its classic black finish and sophisticated tailoring make it highly appropriate for office environments and business-casual events.

What footwear works best with this style?

Heels or elegant pointed-toe flats are recommended to complement the length and the flow of the fishtail hem.

Does the color fade easily?

By avoiding direct sunlight during drying and using appropriate cleaning methods, the black finish will remain vibrant for a long duration.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles upon unpacking

Steam the garment lightly from a distance; do not apply a hot iron directly to the fabric surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment uses high-quality compact viscose, proper maintenance is essential to retain its fit and color. Always refer to the internal care label for exact temperature requirements. We recommend professional dry cleaning or a gentle hand-wash in cool water to prevent the fabric from losing its structure. Avoid wringing the material after washing; instead, lay it flat on a clean towel to air dry out of direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation. For storage, use a skirt hanger with padded clips to prevent indentations in the waistband or fabric.
